I know its possible to use customs font in an app by thrown a .tff in and changing the info.plist but is it possible to use font from typekit.com ? My client wants a specific font off there called Omnes Pro. but the site seems to be geared towards just HTML devs. which I am none the such. Any help guys?

TypeKit fonts are for web use only, so this isn't possible

http://help.typekit.com/customer/portal/articles/6854-using-fonts-in-desktop-applications

EDIT

Looks like TypeKit desktop syncing means fonts are not 'web only' anymore, but their license still doesn't allow embedding in native applications as of February 2014:

From http://help.typekit.com/customer/portal/articles/1341590:

Can I embed Typekit desktop fonts in a mobile or desktop app I’m building?

No. Neither the Typekit sync font license or web font license allows you to embed the fonts within mobile or desktop apps. Currently, this requires the appropriate license to be purchased directly from the foundry or one of their authorized resellers.
